These two lovely plates were made by Doulton Burslem in 1887. What is unusual is that they are EARLY Herbery Betteley designs in his first year at Doulton. Scalloped edges highlighted in gold (a speciality of Betteley) with scenes by a river.
Two different designs - please see photos. Because of the glaze it has reflected light into the pattern - this is NOT a default it is the camera catching light spots Signed to the base with HB and a 2 (on one plate)and a 3 underneath. Rd no 72067 for 1886/7.
One little chip on one that I can see otherwise in great condition. Herbert Betteley was born in 1860 and joined Doulton in 1886 at the age of 26 after study at the Burslem School of Art. Initially an artist he was responsible for decorating many of the ornamental ware exhibited at the Chicago World's Fair (World's Columbian Exposition) of 1893. Later, he designed patterns for Doulton and ware bearing pattern numbers prefixed by'HB' or'BB' (in addition to the normal Doulton backstamp) are presumably the work of Betteley. His speciality was the painting of intricate gold patterns on ornamental ware.He remained associated with the Nile St factory until 1930.
